A riveting, intimate, yet little-known story about the Belgian Resistance in World War II.

Stunning and cathartic, "Last Best Hope" takes even the most jaded World War II film buff by surprise.

"Last Best Hope" explores the moral courage expressed by ordinary Belgian citizens, disenfranchised by Hitler's brutal fascist
regime, who came together in extraordinary ways to aid one downed American fighter pilot.

At the heart of the story is Abilene, Texas resident Bill Grosvenor, a P-47 Thunderbolt pilot who fell from the skies over Belgium
and into the hands of the Resistance in 1943. Nearly 60 years later, Grosvenor was reunited with his helpers in Belgium who fought
against tyranny and oppression in their homes, in their neighborhoods, and in the streets of Brussels. As unexpectedly as the Gestapo
snared Grosvenor in an early morning safehouse raid, "Last Best Hope" transports the viewer to another place and time with a universal
message about faith, hope, and the undefeatable power of the human spirit.

Last Best Hope was produced by Rendez-Vous Film LLC, who also created a related website.
